The Good Wife and a Wife-to-Be

I wished Melissa McCarthy congratulations for her Emmy win in yesterday’s blog. I have to send out the same kind of kudos to Julianna Margulies of The Good Wife for her Emmy win as well. What a good premiere for her on Sunday night. After last season’s finale — the steamy elevator scene and then onto the presidential suite and finally fading to black — I was like, “Oh, come on! What’s going to happen next?” I’m so glad I tuned in.

Mike & Molly had a great kick-off to their second season Monday night. The entire cast is remarkably talented and really adds to the flavoring of the show. It was a gut-buster when Mike slowly awakens from his CPAP slumber, at 4am to go fishing with the fellows and says to Molly, “Wedding details are nonsense this early in the morning.” The look on his face the second he said that was absolutely priceless. Then with great comic timing, Molly sits up in bed behind him with an even more priceless stare on hers.

Clueless, dirty-old-man Vinnie, has got to be one of my favorite characters on the show, second to Carl’s ‘big momma’ grandmother. Molly’s half-baked sister and half-dressed mother were hysterical, as usual, while Mike and the boys actually stopping on the way back from an early fishing trip to check out the wedding reception hall just goes to show you that Officer Biggs (Mike) has a lot of heart and tenderness for Molly.

It’s going to be another funny season for Mike and Molly, and I wouldn’t be surprised if Melissa McCarthy (Molly) wins another Emmy next year as well, with all of the wedding preparations this season. I can hardly wait to see Mike’s grimaces all year long.
